In line with these preclinical results, a retrospective analysis of a phase III study involving patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) revealed that PD-L1 tumor proportion score (TPS) ≥ 50% more reliably predicted therapeutic response in NSCLC patients with baseline tumor volume (BTV)-large compared to patients with BTV-small. The gene discussed is CD274; the disease is non-small cell lung carcinoma.
